404. Your Brain On Walking

Don't think walking is good exercise? The above image shows your brain before and after a 20 minute walk.

Walking isn’t just great for your body; it’s a superpower for your brain too. A brisk 20-minute walk can transform your mental state. Here’s what happens when you walk:

• Increased Blood Flow: Your heart pumps more blood, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your brain.

• Mood Lift: Walking boosts endorphins, which are your body’s natural mood lifters.

• Enhanced Creativity: Walking has been shown to improve creative thinking and problem-solving skills.

• Stress Reduction: Physical activity helps to reduce levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.

So, go walk! Your brain will thank you!

405. Inflating A Tire? Listen Up!

If you ever hear a sound like a zipper while inflating a tire, stop immediately and run.

This is the sound a tire makes right before it’s about to blow!

A tire explosion can be extremely dangerous, causing injury or even death.

Always prioritize safety by checking your tire condition beforehand, inflating the tire slowly, and staying alert for unusual sounds (like the sound of a zipper).
